"A burning passion coupled with absolute detachment..." - Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

“I consider writing as a fine art. We kill it by imposing the alphabet on little children and making it the beginning of learning.”

“All our philosophy is as dry as dust if it is not immediately translated into some act of living service.”

“If love or non-violence be not the law of our being, the whole of my argument falls to pieces.”

“One needs to be successful in the conventional way to learn just how far away from success it may be.”

“The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.”

“There are basically two types of people. People who accomplish things, and people who claim to have accomplished things. The first group is less crowded.”

“The things that you do should be things that you love, and things that you love should be things that you do.”

“The Intellect engages us in the pursuit of Truth. The Passions impel us to Action.”

“This passion, so unordered and yet so potent, explains the capacity for teaching that one frequently observes in scientific men of high attainments in their specialties-for example, Huxley, Ostwald, Karl Ludwig, Virchow, Billroth, Jowett, William G. Sumner, Halsted and Osler-men who knew nothing whatever about the so-called science of pedagogy, and would have derided its alleged principles if they had heard them stated.”
